Hua Zhong · China · 120 film

The 华中 SFJ-1 is a compact twin lens reflex camera manufactured by the Chinese company Hua Zhong, utilizing medium format 120 film. This lightweight TLR, weighing only 90 grams, is notable for its minimal construction, featuring shutter speeds ranging from bulb (B) to 1/500 second. As a budget camera produced in an uncertain period (likely mid-20th century), the SFJ-1 represents the more accessible segment of TLR cameras, offering basic functionality without the sophisticated engineering of more premium models. Its diminutive weight suggests a simplified design, possibly using plastic components and basic optics typical of entry-level cameras from that era.
